1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
I really have to ensure
6, 7, 8, 9, 10
This Ball doesn’t hit the floor.
11, 12, 13, 14, 15
Keepy Uppy’s the game
16, 17, 18, 19, 20
The Record is my aim.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 I’m using all my body parts
My feet, my head, my knees,
But the problem now is
I can feel a sneeze.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 That’s right I feel a sneeze coming on
Any moment now
When I’ve sneezed it’ll ruin everything,
As I’m really not sure how

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 I’m able to continue
In the midst of a sneezing fit.
I’m trying, at the moment,
To keep control of it.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 I also seem to have lost count
And that’s no good to me,
As when I phone the record books
I have to say how many

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Times I touched the ball.
Not sure what I will do
I’ll just keep on, oh no wait:
Achoo, achoo, achoo.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Well that’s it now, I’ve sneezed,
The record is not mine,
But if at first you don’t succeed
You’ve just got to keep on try’n.
